Reliable Diesel Engines

Two 60 L (3,700 in³) diesel engines deliver reliable power and torque, making the 6090 FS both agile and productive. Developed for mining, these engines deliver high uptime in demanding applications. Combining their low fuel consumption with the sophisticated Cat hydraulic system, the outstanding fuel efficiency of the 6090 FS directly contributes to lowering the cost per tonne or cubic meter moved.

Keep Producing and Ensure the Safety of Your Operators, Even During Single Engine Loss

You will realize enhanced safety, greater uptime, more productivity, and better serviceability as a result of our twin engine concept.

• Enhanced Safety

The ability to move your shovel to a safe area for repair, away from highwalls, blast zones, or other safety hazards, is still possible with the use of a single engine.

• Greater Uptime and More Productivity

65% of full production can still be achieved with the use of a single engine. This is due to the shovel's continued ability to exert maximum digging forces, to lower the front attachment without requiring engine power (i.e., pressure-free), and to recuperate energy via its closed-loop swing circuit.

• Better Serviceability

Troubleshooting is greatly simplified and expedited with the ability to compare one engine versus the other.
